I have been trying to create local server just for me and my few friends, but they cannot connect with Blockmension. All they get is "Connecting to server." and the bar doesnt fill up, and then it says "Failed to connect"
I can get to the server no problems but they cant? whats the problem?

I dont know how to fix this and i would appreciate if someone helps THANKS! :)

Good news, I've just released a new version of Blockmension Client for Windows [v1.1]. It allows you to specify the ip address for the direct connection. You should use the direct connection, if you are connecting to the server that is in your local network. The local IPs usually start with 192.168. If you are connecting to the server from the same machine it is run on, then use the loopback IP address: 127.0.0.1.
